I AM With You – Series 980 – God makes many promises in the Bible. Perhaps God’s greatest announcement is: I am with you. The Gospel of Matthew stresses this important truth by calling Mary’s newborn: Emmanuel, a name that means God is with us. Because God is with us we can know God, face our trials and be more than a conqueror in Jesus!
Topics in Series 980 include:
- I am with you: God called Moses and gave him a daunting task: Go to Pharaoh and free the Hebrews. Moses was able because God was with him. We can face the trials and challenges of our life and be victorious, because God is with us also.
- You don’t have to stay stuck: To be a disciple of Jesus means we are on a pilgrimage of personal change. Change can happen but it takes more than determination.
- Hope that thing with feathers: Biblical hope is different from Pollyanna optimism. The hope of the Bible is the firm assurance that blessings and good experience lie in our future.
- Prayer: A Vital Necessity: Prayer determines eternity. Contact with God also provides consolation, strength and direction in the present. Learn how Jesus prayed. Prayer can change our circumstances, but also changes us.
- The Core of Christianity: The first and foremost commandment is to love God with all of our mind, heart, soul and strength. We can love God through loving others. Jesus shows us the way to growth.
- And More!
